Spirit Of The Age Lyrics

Artist: Hawkwind
Album: Quark, Strangeness And Charm

I would've liked you to have been deep frozen tooAnd waiting still as fresh in your flesh for myreturn to earthBut your father refused to sign the forms to freeze youLet's see you'd be about 60 now, and long deadby the time I return to earthMy time held dreams were full of you as you werewhen I left, still underageYour android replica is playing up againit's no jokeWhen she comes she moans another's nameBut that's the spirit of the age, that's thespirit of tha ageI am a clone, I am not aloneEvery fibre of my flesh and bone is identical tothe othersEverything I say is in the same tone as my testtube brother's voiceAnd there's no choice between us, if you had everseen us you'd rejoice in your uniquenessAnd consider every weakness something special ofyour ownBeing a clone I have no flaws to identifyEven this doggerel that pours from my penHas just been written by another twentytelepathic menWord for word it says"Oh, for the wings of any bird other than abattery hen".
